    The enhanced Sanov theorem and propagation of chaos
    (Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2017) Deuschel, Jean-Dominique; Friz, Peter K.; Maurelli, Mario; Slowik, Martin
    We establish a Sanov type large deviation principle for an ensemble of interacting Brownian rough paths. As application a large deviations for the (-layer, enhanced) empirical measure of weakly interacting diffusions is obtained. This in turn implies a propagation of chaos result in a space of rough paths and allows for a robust analysis of the particle system and its McKean–Vlasov type limit, as shown in two corollaries.

    Large deviations of specific empirical fluxes of independent Markov chains, with implications for Macroscopic Fluctuation Theory
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2017) Renger, D.R. Michiel
    We consider a system of independent particles on a finite state space, and prove a dynamic large-deviation principle for the empirical measure-empirical flux pair, taking the specific fluxes rather than net fluxes into account. We prove the large deviations under deterministic initial conditions, and under random initial conditions satisfying a large-deviation principle. We then show how to use this result to generalise a number of principles from Macroscopic Fluctuation Theory to the finite-space setting.
